I've been asking Fable very complicated questions in heterodox economic theory, which is something I know a lot about. The stuff it comes back with is incredibly deep.

To give a metaphor that everyone here on HN would understand, reading it's responses gives me the same level of wonder as one gets learning how quicksort works for the first time. It even stretches my brain to grasp what it's even come up with. I find myself getting mentally exhausted just digesting it's brilliance.

I think the singularity will have this point where AI comes up with ideas so profound, like a Ramanujen equation, that the most brilliant among us can't even decipher the answer to our questions. The internal reasoning of the machine is at a level of complexity that's beyond human comprehension to even keep track of everything enough to integrate the understanding of what it's come up with. This will happen with any even mildly complex question about any topic.
